We've just had a lovely stay in this cottage. It has everything you would need. Very clean, spacious and comfortable, the bed in the en- suite room was so comfortable, I wanted to take it home!We had plenty of use out of the hot tub and it was a welcome addition.Location wise, we travelled to lots of different places while we were there and it is not a long journey to popular areas or beaches.The only fault we found with the Location, was how close the bedrooms are to the road. Lots of road noise at night, which if you were a light sleeper, May keep you updated.
